As many of you know, my memoir will be arriving April, 2019. In preparation for that event, I am updating my website, social media, etc. to reflect its debut. I'll be offering a new 'lead magnet' - that downloadable special something that will have millions...
If you posed that question to me, I'd proudly respond, "This morning!" I'm working on a deadline these days with my memoir due out at the end of April. Feels like tomorrow with all I need to do in preparation for that event. Today's task was to ask people I deeply...
While living in CT, if I had an hour or two between meetings and no time to get home, I used my car as my office provided the weather permitted. I'd pull off the road at a rest stop to coach a client, or recline my driver seat for my afternoon meditation. Living in...
The remarkable Paula Harris had an idea for a retreat, then made it happen. That sentence does not reveal the 10,784 decision points between conception and reality. One of those fortunate decisions was her hiring me along the way. I returned to NYC in the Quiet Car...
Way back in May, a few short months after my manuscript was accepted for publication by She Writes Press, I received an invitation to attend an all female authors retreat in November in Carefree, Arizona. How could I say no? I'm just back from an exhilarating 4...
I'm so happy I joined the Women's Media Group in NYC a couple of years ago. They have a way of making all members feels welcomed and a part of the group. Here's a tip on how to solidify any network you're in from BNI, to a Chamber, to Toastmasters and so on. Create...
If you didn't get to the theatre to see Love, Gilda, it's available streaming online, and I recommend it. She was a treat to watch on SNL all those years ago. Seeing her in this documentary about her life reminded me of how lovable and thoroughly entertaining she...
The program was entitled Rise Up Roulette (scroll down the link to see the illustrious women who spoke that night) and offered a round robin of experts visiting group tables in lieu of a panel of experts sitting in front of an audience. I loved the format! I was...
For years I've seen The Natural Singer course offered at Kripalu, Omega and The Open Center in NYC. For years I've thought, maybe another time. On Saturday, another time arrived. I signed up for the one day session here in my backyard. The course promises: Find...
From the moment I heard an essay comparing life to a series of trapeze swings, I've held onto that metaphor. In November, I'll be co-leading a retreat with my colleague (and workshop mentor...) Ken Nelson dealing specifically with that topic. Paula Harris, who...
I got tipped off recently that there's a resource for New Yorkers of a certain age. It's called Senior Planet. Yesterday I attended my first workshop there (at no cost) to improve my navigation on youtube. Like most of you, I'm a veteran user. But, like any...
My chiropractor introduced me to audio recordings back in the early 80's. I've been a fan ever since. First motivational tapes (yes, tapes), then books on tape, CD's and now mp3's and podcasts. What recently made the experience even better was my purchase of a Bose...
Since last December, I've been telling every woman I know about my experience with Mama Gena (MG). I now have the opportunity to share her brilliance with you. But first a bit of background for those of you I haven't personally mentioned her to. Late last year,...
Yup! Those were the very words my Visions team spoke to me yesterday. I wrote them down as one of my goals to accomplish before we meet again in two weeks. I was complaining that this whole season has gone by without me entering an outdoor body of water, the...
A funny thing happened as I was editing my memoir's final draft. I decided to disguise a few names and places in my book and used the 'find and replace' tool in google docs. My kids went to the Columbus Magnet School, but to protect a few identities, I changed it...
